Abstract EN
The aim of our study was to study the clinical profile of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients admitted with the diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) due to bilateral acute no obstructive pyelonephritis.
The bilateral involvement was identified on various imaging modalities (ultrasound, computed tomography, nuclear scintigrapy).
All the patients had AKI.
Those with severe AKI underwent hemodialysis.
The factors associated with the severity of illness were identified.
Twenty-five patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus admitted with the diagnosis of AKI due to bilateral acute non-obstructive pyelonephritis were identified.
On ultrasound, bilateral involvement was found in 12 patients and in 17 patients on computed tomography and eight patients on nuclear scintigraphy.
Fourteen of them needed dialysis support.
Bilateral acute pyelonephritis needs to be considered while evaluating the AKI in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.
